Here is a reprint of an article written by Steve Bailey that The Express published in February 2014 about Blind Boy Fuller: Blind Boy Fuller was born Fulton Allen in Ansonville in July of 1905. He was one of 16 children born to Calvin and Mary Jane Hyatt Allen. He prob- ably grew up around Pleasant Hill Baptist Church on the Ansonville-Polkton Road where some of his relatives are buried. Fuller was always surrounded by music, and he learned to play the guitar with the help of an older brother or sister. His grandparents were Sidney and Elizabeth Allen, and Washington and Annie Hyatt. The family was still living in Ansonville in 1910, but had moved to Rockingham by 1917. Two of his brothers were married in February and March of 1917 at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. Blind Boy Fuller married Cora Martin on September 10, 1927, in Marl-boro County, SC when he was 22 years old and Cora was 14 years old. The mar-riage li- cense stated they were residents of Rockingham. During this time his eyesight started to fail him, caused by a congenital disease. Because of the blindness he became dependant upon his guitar playing to make a living, realizing that perform- ing was one of the few alternatives that was available to the working class blind in the 1920’s. By the time he and his wife had moved to Durham in 1929 he was entirely dependent on his guitar playing that helped to supplement the meager wages his wife earned as a domestic servant. Durham had an abundance of African American middle class with African American owned banks, insurance companies, funeral homes and a host of other businesses. This contributed to a vibrant African American urban life. Recognizing the unique opportunities that Durham had to offer to musicians who were forced to rely on the public for support, he set out to improve the mastery of the guitar. As his playing improved he became a favorite at local house parties. In 1935 his musical talents caught the ear of James Long, the white manager of Durham’s United Dollar Store who was an informal agent of the American Record Corporation (ARC). Sensing that Fulton’s ver- satile guitar playing, witty lyrics and robust singing could lead to a successful recording career, Long arranged for Fulton to travel to ARC’s New York studios for a record- ing session. ARC released all twelve songs recorded at that session and soon called him back into the studio. Over the next five years Fulton, who appeared on record as “Blind Boy Fuller,” recorded more than 125 titles, all of which were released. Those recordings made him one of the most popular blues artists of all time. His guitar style came to define the blues sound of the southeastern states. Blind Boy Fuller died from a severe bladder infection on February 13, 1941 at his home in Durham, and he was buried at Durham’s Grove Hill Cemetery. Foster Parent Support Group Meets Meetings of the Foster Parent Support Group are held the second Thursday of the month, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Richmond County Department of Social Services, located at 125 Caroline Street in Rockingham.
